Why do people view people in their mid twenties as over the hill?

Answer 1

Over the hill! They've hardly begun the climb!

Answer 2

Never heard this one. I knew that you couldn't trust anyone over 30, but the mid-twenty people used to be the coolest. I rather enjoyed that naive phase of my life, in-spite of my financial ignorance. Mid-to-late 20's are when people really start to get a clue.

However, for those that believe the mid-20's people are too old, it's always better to be over the hill than to be six feet under the hill.

Answer 3

I remember age 25, what a wasted year, i always looked at it as turning a quarter of a century old, instead of whats ahead of me

now at Christmas in 2006, i turned the big 40 as they call it, and now i look at it differently, i am smarter, and know more now then back then and when I'm 50 i will know more, then i did at 40, that's life, so you are never to old, you just age gracefully

Answer 4

they dont, thats 40

Answer 5

because those first people are stupid bigots
